Lukashenko calls to increase competitiveness of Belarus, Russia

Our key goal is to increase competitiveness of our countries, Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at the plenary session of the 8th Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia on 1 July, BelTA has learned.

“Our key goal is to increase competitiveness of our countries, which is almost impossible at present without breakthrough innovations. Unfortunately, the share of high-technology enterprises in the manufacturing sectors of our economies is not enough and their development is not as robust as it should be,” the head of state noted.

Transition to digital platforms will help increase the innovative potential of Belarus and Russia, Aleksandr Lukashenko believes. “They can become key tools for digital transformation of traditional industries and markets,” he said.
